Borderland 2's Krieg, the Pyscho Bandit, confirmed for May 14, and he's eager to "meat" his new friends

Are you excited for the upcoming Borderlands 2 content? Probably not nearly as excited as Krieg is. The Psycho Bandit was confirmed back in March, and then sort of fell off the face of the planet until recently. Today, Gearbox announced that he'd be arriving May 14.

The announcement comes from an official Borderlands 2 account, which has seen a ton of odd posts lately heralding Krieg's arrival. Back in April, the posts suddenly took a nonsensical turn, which has continued since then. Today, a new post reads:

Accompanying the post is the image seen above, of crazy ol' Krieg with his new... friends. The guy does have a pretty darn interesting backstory attached. While he's insane, a voice in his head -- possibly a shadow of his former self -- prevents him from killing indiscriminately. Instead, Krieg only goes after those who deserve to die, with that little voice threatening to take over and force him to commit suicide if he ever lays a hand on an innocent.

Harsh. If you're interested in reading more random posts in '90s style typing, the Twitter account has been going pretty crazy today.

Cool. Though I don't know if I'll get it right away. If I have to listen to Handsome Jacks dialog one more time I think I'll top myself.

EDIT: If I do get it, it'll only to see his skills. And his dialog should be funny as hell.

For the million reasons why you might think he's not into you, there are at least a million more that could be the complete opposite. Hang in there, I know it's so tough to get out of your own head, but don't let it eat away at you.

Krieg will be interesting to play but he will be horrible at raid bosses. I am not 100% psyched for this new VH.

They are over hyping him like how they over hype really bad movies. Sorry if i seem like a dick but lets look at the last few updates and add ons.

Hammerlocks big game hunt... Absolute crap as far as contentUltimate pack.. 6 invo slots and 6 bank slots... Slaps in the face when this game is loot bases and there are 4-5 element variations of most legendaries.

So i am not holding my breath for this crap hunter

With you on most of that. There isn't actually a DLC for Borderlands 2 I actually like.
